The patch titled
sysctl: simplify the pty sysctl logic
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
sysctl-simplify-the-pty-sysctl-logic.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sysctl: simplify the pty sysctl logic
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Instead of having a bunch of ifdefs in sysctl.c move all of the pty sysctl
logic into drivers/char/pty.c
As well as cleaning up the logic this prevents sysctl_check_table from
complaining that the root table has a NULL data pointer on something with
generic methods.
